Is there a way to either disable or change the sensitivity of the passenger's seat? I will have a gallon of milk [or two bottles of wine] in the passenger's seat and the car will continue to bark at me to buckle the milk up.

Just snap up the seat belt after feeding it through the handle of the milk jug, done.

Amended. You'll thank me the first time you panic-brake and do not have to clean a gallon of rotting milk out of your carpet.

The seatbelt-warning chime can be disabled via coding (software reconfiguration). I believe it is all or nothing, however--you cannot adjust or disable the passenger side alone.

A better place to transport milk, wine and similar-sized containers of liquid is on the floor behind either front seat. Really, anything that might become a projectile in a sudden stop should be behind you and in some way, hindered from flying between the front seats (ideally, in the trunk, but that's a bad place for unsecured liquids, I can tell you...). There is then far less chance it will end up under the pedals, distract you as it bounces around or tempt you to make a reflexive grab to save the item or the cabin from damage. Any of those events can lead to catastrophe.

Agreed. Buckle up the milk container, or bag of whatever. All you need is a hard break to send the thing flying forward and splashing over your entire car. Which may get worse if you try and save it and get into a real accident.

That, or stick that stuff on the floor. At least there it won't be as likely to fly.
